On the same weekend as the ISP’s conference, A2K4: Access to Knowledge and Human Rights, the Free Culture X conference was taking place in Washington DC. As part of that event, they released Tim Kothran’s great ten-minute educational movie entitled “Why Open Video?”
The work combines footage from interviews with a number of entrepreneurs, activists, and scholars shot at last summer’s Open Video Conference, including: Yochai Benkler (ISP Affiliated Fellow), Shay David ISP Visiting Fellow), and Adi Kamdar (ISP Student Fellow), and Lea Shaver (Director, ISP Access to Knowledge Research Program).
The Open Video Alliance has the video online — available for download, in open format, subtitles coming soon — at http://openvideoalliance.org/why-open-video/?l=en.
